SWEET!!!! 8-) :D
POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

Now you'll want more. Use it wisely and enjoy it. I've never heard of anyone wearing out a Smith.

Oh, Smith's get worn out all the time. Competitive shooters, often keep spare revolvers to have them rebuilt/tuned - of course, most competitive shooters have spares...

Nice! I would've paid $650 for that.

Was it a private sale?

No, bought it at the range I belong to. Might've been a consignment gun, or one the range bought and put in the used sale rack.

Nah, I mean an actual shooter, not the hyped up 10,000 round a week, gunnies on steroids. By the way, what is the feminine version of gunny?

Nice. That is almost the twin of the one I used to have (and around the same vintage), which AlaskaTRX has now.
